Thomas Massie | We're Going to Have an Additional $30 Trillion in Debt Ten Years From Now.​

Sep 18, 2025 #dollar #economy #congress #dollar #economy #congress #federalreserve #gold
In my interview with U.S. congressman Thomas Massie who represents the 4th district in Kentucky we spoke about the Big Beautiful Bill and its ramifications for the national debt and the dollar.
We also covered a bill (HR 1846) which he introduced to Congress for abolishing the Federal Reserve System and another bill he introduced to audit U.S. gold reserves in Fort Knox.
We also talked about Rep. Massie's off-grid living and what it takes to do it.

If you are a follower and have not seen this reported today:

Too late to dig out links to the info, but tomorrow should provide much info that Kimmel getting canceled was because -- without regard to the FCC -- Disney told Kimmel he needed to apologize on Wednesday night's show, and he refused.

Then Disney execs got info that Kimmel was going to double down and blast them in his Wednesday night monologue.

THAT was the breaking.

His show was a money loser and Disney/ABC decided they weren't going to allow him on the air Wed night. With the affiliate backlash, cancelling was the only -- and best financial option.
 
repeats other videos he's done, but there's always a current nugget he lays out.

HOLY CRAP! The Democrat Chair of the Washington DC Council was just CONFRONTED by Jim Jordan on fudging the crime statistics, and he cracked under pressure.

"Why not call it STEALING? Why did you create this new category that grew +500% that I think allows you to cook the books?!"

JORDAN: What is "taking property without right?"

PHIL MENDELSON: Well, that's theft.

JORDAN: Then WHY NOT CALL IT THEFT?

MENDELSON: I can't speak to....

JORDAN: The solution was to come up with "Taking Property Without Right?"

MENDELSON: If you're speaking to particular charges, I can't speak to that...

JORDAN: I am asking a simple question. You have a classification for crime called "taking property without right." What does that mean?

MENDELSON: It means what it says.

JORDAN: What would a normal person call "taking property without right?!" [It's] grown 500% in the past several years! I think allows you to cook the books!

@Jim_Jordan they are COOKING THE BOOKS.

Antifa is the Left's militia. All the silver investors are rolling in it now and should be concerned about personal safety.
 

Karoline Leavitt basically says Antifa members and those who FUND it are Fooked…

Anyone who understands the Q drops understands where this is going.

RICO RICO RICO RICO RICO RICO RICO RICO RICQ RICO RICO RICO RICO RICO

Q asked anons the following questions in one if the most revealing declassifications to the public, a public SCIF.

Why is ANTIFA allowed to operate?
Why hasn't the MB been classified as a terrorist org?
What happens if SOROS funded operations get violent and engage in domestic terrorism?
What happens if mayors/ police comms/chiefs do not enforce the law?

Q later says…
What must be completed to engage MI over other (3) letter agencies
During the 1950s and 60s, federal troops and federalized National

An anon commented….. >Hahahaha, Trump has had MI INFILTRATE Antifa and all the dissenting local govts. Always 5 steps ahead.

Q says…
Well done. Picture being painted.

Q later says…
ANTIFA 'mapping' started a long time ago.

All of this is leading up to something big. Big things take time. How long did the RICO operation take re: New York Mafia? How long since Trump has been in office? Compare and contrast the complexity of the Mafia vs global cabal.

FULL SPEECH: Trump addresses United Nations General Assembly​

RE: Antifa

I think it is important that we are all armed with truth-based arguments regarding Antifa, as its enablers and funders on the mainstream Left seek to convince us it does not exist.

So here goes, ten important facts about Antifa:

1. Antifa is a cellular organization. Each cell is kept separate from other cells so that the loss of one cell does not bring down the entire organization. Despite this cellular structure, all cells serve a common purpose of using violence to enforce Marxism on America.

2. For reference, al Qaeda, the Mafia and most terror or organized crime organizations use the same cellular structure as Antifa.

3. The cellular nature of an organization does not mean it is not an "organization."

4. Merely saying you are "anti-fascist" does not make it so. It's like Jeffrey Dahmer saying he is "anti-cannibalism." In reality, Antifa's tactics of violence suppression of alternate views is a classic tactic of 20th Century fascists.

5. Despite the overall cellular organization, various Antifa cells (such as Rose City Antifa) are highly organized with a distinct social media presence, a formal leadership structure, formal training materials and training events and a dedicated communications network.

6. Antifa in 2025 alleges it began in the 1930s in Germany to oppose Hitler (I have no idea if this is true; it might be). Their intent in endlessly repeating this bit of history is to equate peaceful, conservative, religious Americans with Hitler. This sort of cultural xenophobia is what led to Charlie Kirk's assassination.

7. In terms of direct action, Communists and Fascists are indistinguishable. That is why it is fair to say Antifa is itself a fascist organization, as well as being Marxist.

8. The key to shutting down Antifa is to cut off its funding. Like all Marxist organizations, the Democrat Party funds it enforcer arm of Antifa street thugs through a variety of cut-out organizations, both private and public. (Those pallets of bricks don't show up by themselves.) The key to ending the violent, fascist scourge of Antifa rests in the FBI unraveling this web of deceit and funding.

9. Yes, Antifa is by definition a terror organization.

10. Free speech is never violence, and violence is never free speech.

Hope this helps.
 

SIX WOMEN ARRAIGNED IN TEXAS SHOOTING OF ICE AGENTS

Six women were just arraigned in federal court for their alleged roles in the July 4 ambush shooting at the Prairieland ICE Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.

Prosecutors say the women helped stage a fake vandalism call to lure officers into a trap, where an Alvarado cop was shot in the neck and correctional officers were sprayed with 20 to 30 rounds.

Investigators recovered AR-style rifles, radios, body armor, and a phone-signal jammer from the suspects’ vehicles.

According to the federal complaint, some wore black tactical gear and split off from a larger group that had launched fireworks and tagged property with graffiti.

If convicted, the women face federal charges including attempted murder, conspiracy, and firearms offenses.

Supporters claim they were attending a mostly peaceful protest and deny any conspiracy.
